DESCRIPTION:Independent Component Analysis (ICA) is a challenging problem 
 in\nthe areas of statistical signal processing and unsupervised machine\nl
 earning. This talk studies the problem of linear ICA.\n\nRecently\, there 
 has been an increasing interest in using geometric optimisation\nmethods t
 o solve linear ICA problems. Two prominent classes of geometric linear\nIC
 A methods\, Newton-type methods and Jacobi-type methods\, will be discusse
 d.\nThis talk will mainly focus on the development and convergence analysi
 s of\nthe proposed geometric linear ICA methods\, both theoretically and n
 umerically.
